    Is there any difference between a sun room and an orangery? The term seems to be interchangeable but aren't they the same thing? If not, please explain the difference as we'll be looking to get a sun room added this year.

    New Windows, Want Sun Screens

    The company that will be installing new windows on my home will not install sun/solar screens, and product warranty would be voided if we install them ourselves after installation. We were told the screens do not help with heat reduction and that they actually damage the windows by trapping the heat between glass and screen. Are sun or solar screens bad?
